Song currently stuck in your head?

[Col.Kilgore]

Showing my age here, but this has been stuck in my head the last two days...lol.

When I'm doing a Vietnam kit . . .this is in my head.

 

[Col.Kilgore]

Classic!

The middle eastern version is haunting.

 

[Plastic Pilot]

I know the pieces fit...

I really like this . . . helps me concentrate on my build.

For building purpose I listen a lot to spiritual metal, kinda gets me in the mood, I started painting miniatures just before the pandemics of 2019, a year before, painting really helped out in those times. Sometimes It's like meditating and very therapeutic, if you got the time and life lets you live.

 

[Plastic Pilot]

Outside my window...
Outside my door...
And I know the reason...

Because of...

I really like this . . . helps me concentrate on my build

Ya, if I need to concentrate, there can't be lyrics... stuff like this, atmospheric, electronic, mindscapes, driving in the dark, in the rain...
and if there are vocals, not in a language I can understand.

If I'm just puttering, bring it all on! Love hearing new stuff, edgy, upbeat, engaging, or oldies but goodies.

Speaking of technolgy, how about a string and your fingers?
Try getting this sound outta your head.

Not really fond of the video but the song won't leave me be.

Gee Tim, that's a bummer. Could we hook you up with some Bee Gees or somethin?

P.S. Ok, sorry, I would never do that to you. Try this, it'll help.

OK, I'm forced to comment on this song since it triggered a life and World-changing event for me in the mid-1990s.

In 1995, I was a software developer at "The Phone Company" (a.k.a. USWest). Back then The Phone Company was this huge all-invasive, all-knowing entity with control over everything. Because of this, my employer wanted to stay on top of any new technology related to communications and computer applications. As a result, we had 1st class Internet connectivity which we used mostly for a relatively new business communication method called "e-mail".

One day I was sitting in my cube and a couple of my coworkers came over and were VERY excited about something they had just loaded onto their desktop computers. It was something called Mosaic web browser. As tech staff, we were all encouraged to explore this new thing called the "Information SuperHighway" and I had heard of this new thing called the "World Wide Web" but didn't really know what it was about. My coworkers said that the WWW and browsers were going to change the world and I brushed it off as just the latest hype and a fad that would soon pass. But they insisted that I try this Mosaic web browser so I agreed and loaded it. "So now what do I do with it?" I asked. Type in something you want to know about. Well what does that mean? So I thought about it and believed I came up with a test that Mosaic would surely fail. When I was in jr high school in the early 1970s, there was a popular song on the radio titled "Long Cool Woman In a Black Dress" by The Hollies that I could never quite understand all the words to. This was totally unknown information at that time with no easy way to get an answer for. So I typed into the search bar "Long Cool Woman song lyric", and after a few seconds the browser started displaying: "Saturday night I was downtown. Working for the FBI. Sitting in a nest of bad men. Whiskey bottles piling high..."

I was STUNNED! The long-sought unknown knowledge was laid bare right before me on my computer display! Something that I thought was impossible to know had been found in a matter of seconds! At that instant, I knew for 100% positive that this Internet thing was going to literally change the World in an all encompassing way!

The Phone Company

... "those were the days my friend"

I got hired as a newfangled 'interaction designer' at Bell Northern Research, BNR, commonly referred to as the Big Nerd Ranch! It was 1994.
It eventually morphed into Nortel, that's another story.

I'd bought a house (the bank had bought a house) back in '86, and it came with a promotional give-away, the Commodore 64!
I dropped my airbrush, and never looked back.

Thanks for the great story! Even those of us in the middle of that revolution could not have foreseen the way things would play out.

Yesterday afternoon I was watching some of the videos and news reports regarding the fire damage in LA.
I guess in one (or more) of the stories, the words "Santa Monica Boulevard" were mentioned.
lol since then I have been unable to get this song out of my head.
I am humming it right now! aaaargh!

I don't particularly like the song. I don't hate it either. Its got a catchy beat, and it's not offensive to the ears.
I just wish I could stop thinking of it!
